Self Esteem
Aaaaahhhh…. The beginning of the week. Weekends are tough. We typically sleep in, and IF I go to the gym, it’s Saturday morning. The rest of the weekend, typically nothing. Well, Sunday I’m on my feet all day doing grown up stuff around the house, but that doesn’t count. On top of that, we don’t […]
Cardio vs Lifting … Why the hell do I do both?
If I had my choice between cardio and lifting…… No brainer…. It’s lifting every single time. I really hate cardio. Which seems silly, since I have completed 9 half marathons, a handful of 10K’s and 5K’s and have 9 or 10 more half marathons scheduled and paid for this year already. So why do I do both? […]
The week in recap….
Wow, I can’t believe I went so long between posts! So, I did OK this week staying on track. Food wise, was fine. I skipped a couple mornings at the gym. But you know what? I lost weight. I KNOW that I don’t have to go to the gym as much as I do. I […]
Pain
I’m so upset right now. For a while, I struggled with neck and shoulder pain. It was all related to strain in my neck. Poor posture, my weight, etc… I went to Physical Therapy for a while and have been doing much better. Then I strained my hamstring. But Brandon was awesome with showing me […]
Progress. Forward is good!
Even if we’re taking baby steps….. On Jan 3, Brandon and I took note of my body comp. We did it again this morning. (cries! My last day with him!) Here are my results between Jan 3, 2014 and Feb 26, 2014: Weight: -2 lbs Body Fat: -1.1% Arm: -.5 inches Chest: -.75 inches Waist: -.75 inches Hips: […]
The next 10 ish days
I’ve never lived alone. I really never even had my own bedroom. I’ve always shared with my Sister (thankfully, we are very close and have always gotten along) or have shared with Mark. Ok, maybe for a couple of years when I was 13-15, every other weekend growing up and 2 weeks during summer vacation […]
Weekend recap
What a weekend. They sure do go fast! Friday night, we decided to forego the gym. We did go in the morning so it was all good. In fact, Brandon really killed me with a kettlebell workout. I have the bruises to prove it. Yikes! On both arms. I’m such a badass. 🙂 Mark will […]
Unplanned rest days – err…. Mornings…
I am getting over a pretty nasty cold. Well, it’s pretty nasty for me. I just don’t get sick anymore. (Thanks Advocare) I guess I should take some credit for that too actually. A clean diet and lots of exercise means I’m pretty healthy these days. 🙂 But this morning, when my alarm went off […]
